Italy's Migration Crisis: EXCLUSIVE REPORT on the Harsh Realities of Migrant Life | Migrants Speak

In an exclusive report from Rome, the Chief of the Gurudwara warns Indian families about the harsh realities of migrant life in Italy. With the Italian government’s announcement of issuing 500,000 work visas, hopes are high, but the struggles remain real. While speaking to our correspondent Paridhi Bhanot, Indian migrants like Mehul and Pammi, who have travelled thousands of miles from Punjab and Gujarat in search of a better life, are now caught in the uncertainty of visa issues and exploitation. The Gurudwara plays a pivotal role in their survival, offering support and hope, but the risks are undeniable. Head Priest Inderjeet Singh urges parents not to send their children to Italy, especially girls, highlighting the vulnerability migrants face in a foreign land where exploitation and broken dreams are all too common. A stark warning against the cost of migration, urging people to think carefully before risking everything for the 'foreign laddoo.' #ItalyMigrantCrisis #MigrantCrisisEurope #EuropeanMigrantCrisis #MigrantsInItaly #ItalyMigrants #MigrantCrisis #EUImmigrationCrisis #MigrantsCrossingItaly #EuropeMigrantTensions #ItalyBorderCrisis #MigrantCrisisUpdate #RefugeeCrisisEurope #MigrantSurgeItaly #ChicagoMigrantCrisis #EUMigrantsCrisis ~PR.152~HT.408~

‘As Soon As The Prisoner Swap Is Over, We Will....’ Russia’s Most SURPRISING Move Amid POW Swap

Russia will present a draft peace proposal to Ukraine once the ongoing POW exchange of 1,000 prisoners per side concludes, said Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. The proposal stems from progress made during the recent Istanbul talks, the first direct negotiations since 2022. Lavrov emphasized that the document outlines conditions for a “lasting comprehensive settlement.” President Putin confirmed that the next step, agreed upon with President Trump, involves a memorandum defining the peace roadmap. Both Moscow and Kiev have committed to resuming talks after draft proposals are exchanged. #RussiaUkraine #PeaceProposal #POWSwap #PutinTrump #IstanbulTalks #UkraineConflict #Lavrov #Ceasefire #PeaceDeal #RussiaNews #UkraineNews #ConflictResolution #InternationalTalks #Diplomacy #GlobalPolitics #Moscow #Kiev #WarInUkraine #Putin #Trump Also Read Telangana CM Revanth Reddy Meets K.
